Charlie Clouser revealed on Twitter that he is composing the score for the upcoming Syfy original mini-series Childhood’s End. The show is based on the sci-fi novel by Arthur C. Clarke (2001: A Space Odyssey) of the same title and stars Charles Dance, Mike Vogel, Daisy Betts, Yael Stone, Julian McMahon, Osy Ikhile and Colm Meaney.

Nick Hurran (Little Black Book, Undertaking Betty) serves as the series’ director.
